LOGANVILLE, Ga. — Wanya Morris’ mom raised him to always hear people out. It’s why he listened to Florida’s and Georgia’s last-minute recruiting pitches to pry him away from Tennessee this month.

And when Tennessee first made contact years ago, the Vols were talking. And Morris was “listening,” sure.

But mostly out of obligation.

“Obviously, when Butch (Jones) was there, they didn’t have any accountability or discipline,” Morris said.

If he was going to hand the next three to four years of his life over to a coaching staff, he wanted to make sure he handed them to a staff capable of building him from a big-bodied high school senior into a bona fide NFL prospect. He didn’t see it at Tennessee at first. Morris, the No. 13 overall prospect in the Class of 2019 according to the 247Sports Composite, could have listed his college options for an hour and the Vols might not have made the list.
